The Hamiltons (2006)
Apr 20, 2008Disturbed Family
An indie horror film about a strange and disturbing family of adult children. The whole film hangs on an interesting mid-film conceptual revelation
The Butcher Brothers
April Fool’s Day (2008)
Aug 13, 2009Slasher Film
One of the worst among the 00s fad for remakes of 80s horror films. The original is abandoned all bar the name and becomes an I Know What You Did Last Summer-type slasher peopled by unlikeable teens
The Violent Kind (2010)
Mar 25, 2021Home Invasion by Resurrected 1950s Gang
Strange but by no means uninteresting film that takes several weird doglegs going from biker parties to a possession film and then a home invasion by seemingly resurrected 1950s rockers
The Thompsons (2012)
Aug 7, 2013Family of Vampires
The Hamiltons was an unusual film about a strange family who were eventually revealed to be vampires. By the time of this sequel, all the interesting elements of the original have been eliminated and all that we have is a film of tired poses that fails to add anything to the overworked vampire genre
